"How does one appease a deity? Gain a favor? Avert a curse?" Such questions stood at the center of Ancient Near Eastern religion (and of many cultures since...). And thus great effort has been dedicated to rituals and ceremonies and strict adherence to divine instructions.

So what does the God of Israel want from his people? What are our instructions? (And is our purpose to gain a blessing or escape a punishment??)

In this episode we turn to the OT prophet Micah's succinct articulation of God's answer.

If you'd like to follow along, the passage is:

Micah 6:6-8 (NRSV)

This sermon was preached on June 14, 2020 at Canvas Presbyterian Church (Irvine, CA). If you'd like to share in the whole worship service or find previous sermons, they are available on the Canvas Vimeo page. Or join us via live stream every Sunday morning at 10:30AM (Pacific Time)!
